Author and former investigative journalist Seymour Hersh says the White House has manipulated the mainstream media to the point where it has all the coverage and access it desires, but remains silent on the truth.

Hersh, who was awarded a Pulitzer Prize fpr International Reporting for his coverage the My Lai massacre in Vietnam, was especially critical of The New York Times and Washington Post and their leftist ties to the White House. He says one of the low points in recent years, was their dishonest coverage of how the capture and death of Osama bin Laden went down. He elaborates on London Real, with host Brian Rose.
